I promised myself I would not post this week, as im on holiday with my daughter for a few days, but I can't resist congratulating Om Malik as he turns Pro Blogger and ditches his Business2.0 gig.

I think the move had been coming for a while, but I know it must have been a tough decision as when we last spoke a few weeks back it was still undecided -- The plunge has been taken though, and with some VC backing (like Aaron, im a little confused by that) there will most likely be some interesting things coming out of GigaOm in coming months.

Congratulations Om!

Good luck to him. He says he needs the VC cash to use the talents of coders and such. I guess he figures access to those skills is worth giving a portion of ownership away though I bet he could have found some top class skills for a lot less % than the VCs take ...
